Favorite Things

On this page you’ll find my favorite things. I will not be including my “Favourite Things,” because this is not the UK.

This coming summer, I’m going on a trip with my family to Norway to go to my ancesters city of Fimreite (which my last name is derived from) and also go through the Fjords and see Pulpit rock. I’ve been practicing my Norsk, Jeg kan ikke vente.

I love to read, and The Hours is my favorite book. My other favorite books are Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, The Book Theif and Ant Farm.

Elaborate cupcakes are something I simply don’t want to see a world without. When I was in 8th grade I did my “What Do I Want To Be When I Grow Up” project on being a cupcake baker at Wuollet’s. I keep thinking I could be, then I remember they have to get up super early.

I love good, concise branding. It’s the funnest part of my job, and one of the best ways to get a customer to feel your brand is legit.

I know it’s become trendy for the thinspo/bohemian crowd to like Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, but I admire them for their work ethic, their ability to not publicly embarrass themselves like their A-List peers, oh, and that Diane von Furstenberg is their mentor.

Yes, I want a Great Dane. I know they’re big, have bad digestions and a short life span, but I just love these BFG’s.

Platform wedge shoes. Bonus points if: they cover the tops of my feet, have straps around the ankle, or are designed by Jeffrey Campbell.

Your Life

Your life is your life. Don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission. Be on the watch, there are ways out. There is a light somewhere. It may not be much light, but it beats the darkness. Be on the watch. The gods will offer you chances--know them, take them. You can’t beat death, but you can beat death in life sometimes, and the more often you learn to do it, the more light there will be. Your life is your life. Know it while you have it. You are marvelous. The gods wait to delight in you. --Charles Bukowski
